Walker Clark Governance Review
The future is coming.
Does your law firm have the executive management structure and decision making processes that you will need to survive it?
Even with the most visionary strategic plans and innovative approaches to client service, many law firms lack the basic structures they will need to continue to succeed.
Consider these seven questions about your partners and your firm:
Has it been more than five years since you last reviewed your partnership agreement?
Has the number of partners in your firm changed by more than 20% in the past five years?
Are any of your partners over 60 years old?
Is your firm between 20 and 40 years old?
Are you considering a merger with or an acquisition of another law firm?
Are you trying to implement a new strategic plan?
Does it seem harder to make and implement decisions than it did five years ago?
If your answer to any of these questions is yes, this could be a good time for a Walker Clark Governance Review.
This service, which typically takes 45-60 days, has three parts:
a comprehensive diagnostic of your current governance and decision-making structures, policies, procedures, and actual practices
recommendations of improvements that will produce the best measurable results for a reasonable investment of partner time, attention, and resources
recommended improvements in your firm's partnership agreement or operating agreement to document the changes and provide guidance for the future.
Contact us to schedule a complimentary 30-minute consultation to discuss how a Walker Clark Governance Review could produce better decision making and implementation in your firm and allow you and your partners to spend more time practicing law and earning fees.
